Sticking with the Vampire theme for this week I give you ...
by Alexia Purdy
Summary from Goodreads : "Never tease anything that wants to eat you. My name is April Tate and my blood is the new gold. Vampires and hybrids have overrun my world, once vibrant with life, but now a graveyard of death shrouded in shadows. I fight to survive; I fight for my mother and brother. The journey is full of turns that I am quite unprepared for. And I'm just hoping to make it to the next Vegas sunrise..."
In a post-apocalyptic world, a viral epidemic has wiped out most of the earth’s population, leaving behind few humans but untold numbers of mutated vampires. April is a seventeen-year-old girl who lives in the remains of Las Vegas one year after the outbreak. She has become a ferocious vampire killer and after her family is abducted, she goes searching for them. What she finds is a new breed of vampire, unlike any she has seen before. Unsure of whom she can trust, she discovers that her view of the world is not as black and white as she once thought, and she's willing to bend the rules to rescue her family. But in trying to save them, she may only succeed in bringing her fragile world crashing down around her.
Sounds awesome right!?! I've read a few reviews and all seem to really be blown away by this book and they say that it's not your typical vampire novel so it has my interest sparked, to say the least.
What are your thoughts on vampire novels? Love them, hate them, sick of them? Have you read this one and if you have did you like it? Feel free to leave a link to your review and I would be happy to read it.
Aw, I saw this book on Goodreads and its on TBR list already. It looks great and I'm a Vamp girl after all.

This sounds exactly like a movie I watched about a month ago where a sort of vampire disease spread and they harvest humans for blood. It's really good and this book seems to be like a version of it so I'd love to read it!
